TG> Hi Gary,

TG> I've been using amibinkd now since probably May or so.  It is working
TG> pretty
TG> well for me.  I connect with all of the following networks:  FidoNet,
TG> C=Net,
TG> RetroNet, PiNet, fsxNet, MicroNet and The Quantum Wormhole Net.  I am able
TG> to
TG> poll them with no problems and also receive mail from them with no
TG> problems. 
TG> Are you running it in Server mode when you start your bbs?  I think it is
TG> just
TG> amibinkd -s to start it in server mode.  Will have to look at my config
TG> files. 
TG>  If you'd like sometime I can take a look at your config file to see if I
TG> can
TG> help.  I am using the standart binkd ports.

TG> I am running Zeus 1.7 now at my BBS.. (See tag below).  I started back up
TG> with
TG> Excelsior! and it would receive mail OK but could never make it pick up
TG> the
TG> outgoing messages.  I think it is due to a Y2K bug in the code because the
TG> dates on the outgoing messages were screwed up so I switched over to Zeus.

TG> If I can be of any help you can message me here or at my BBS or via Email:
TG> timgrooms@gmail.com

TG> Tim

        
        Hmmmm... I guess I may have started it wrong.  I placed AmiTask in the
WBStartup and could not figure out how to use the AmiPrefs to get things
started.  Right now I got a working Mystic server running on the Windows side
that is working with CNet.  But to stop using windows as much as I can would be
 awesome.  Here is my config...

# Use Amiga Style Outbound (ASO)
#
aso


#
# Define a link:
#       node [[z:]n/]n[.p][@domain] [-nr] [{hosts|-} [{pwd|-} [flavour
[{obox|-} [{ibox|-}]]]]]
#
# * All non-"-" fields will redefine values specified for the same node 
#  earlier in config. 
# * Flavour is one of i, c, d, -, h; and is the flavour for the outbound
#  filebox ("obox"). 
# * Binkd sends from obox all non-dir entries NOT matching ".*" wildcard.
#  EVERY TIME YOU PUT A FILE INTO OBOX CHECK IF BINKD WILL BE ABLE TO
#  UNLINK IT. Otherwise, the session will never end.
# * Default for ibox is inbound or inbound-nosecure depending on the pwd field.
 
# * Default for port is oport.
# * `-nr' stands for `Not Reliable Link', this works only on outbound calls 
#  with another binkp/1.1 mailer. The option solves the only problem with
#  binkd having no enough time to start receiving of a file from 
#  non-zero offset before IP link's down, so don't use it unless you 
#  have this problem -- really not effective
# * Hosts is a list in form
#       host1[:port1][;host2[:port2]] ...
# * Asterisk (`*') in the host list forces Binkd to perform
#       1:2/3.4 --> p4.f3.n2.z1.fidonet.net translation for a node's
#       Fido-address and lookup IP for the resulting FQDN in DNS.
#       Root domain part ("fidonet.net") can be changed with root-domain
#       keyword.
